4 Stars So much fun
The Sport pack really enhances the games. It was a great investment for my Wii.

1 Star 9 in 1
the remotes work a lot better than the 9 in 1 the games just dont “respond” as well.

1 Star Cheap
This is cheap plastic. It has already cracked and the screw on groves are cheap. Do not buy this product. I regret it already because it was a waste of money.

4 Stars Wii Pack
I bought this for my grandson and I don’t think he plays with it that much.

The pieces are sort of awkward to play with and maybe an adult would like them better.

1 Star Faulty equipment
The product does not work with the Wii remote controllers. Had trouble getting the controller laser to line up when attached to the pieces. Tried 5 of the attachments and none would work.

Please note this is a review of the product not the seller.

Wii Wireless Sensor Bar




Enjoy and enhance your playing experience with your Wii like never before with this Wireless Sensor Bar. It allows full remote functionality without the hassle of tangled wires connected to the console, which makes for a safer environment, and not to mention a more organized look. The infrared field created by the sensor bar allows for play up to 8 feet away, ideal for active games that require body movement. It is operated by two AA batteries (not included) and has a power saver mode that shuts down when the bar is not in use, which allows for a lengthier playing time. No installation or drivers are required for set up; just place the sensor bar in the Wii’s sensor bar stand (or anywhere desired), turn on the on/off switch in the rear, and you are ready to rock and roll.

1 Star Not worth it
I just bought this bar a few days ago and got it in the mail, today. In a way, it is misleading, telling you it requires 3 AAA batteries, when it only takes two, and mine works LESS than 8 feet away. It’s rather annoying, because even when you are less than 8 feet away, the icon from your Wii mote begins to shake badly, and sometimes fades in and out. I am very upset that I paid money for an item that fails to deliver. If anything, I advise peopel to steer clear of this product!

3 Stars The image is misleading!
The product works fine when you are about 8 feet away, any farther it stops sensing your wiimote. Also, the sensor is actually white with a black strip. It looks nothing like the picture. It won’t match your black TV.

4 Stars It works. Well, sort of.
I received the WII wireless sensor and it works. Except for the on/off switch is backwards. Hehe. It’s actually on when you set it to off and off when you set it to on. But it works just fine.

1 Star AWFUL
I have been trying to get my money back on this purchase since the day I received it. It is not compatible with the WII, there is no signal for the WII stick to go through. I have contacted through email to get my money back and was informed to call. I tried calling and was put on hold for over 20 minutes and so did my fiance. This needs to be resolved!!! I want my money back immediately, this is ridiculous that I have to wait and am being told to call rather than just being refunded and provided shipping instructions.

3 Stars Toys
The WII is great however the club and racket set is ok not great. I have played with and without and see not much difference. Not a necessary accessory.

4 Stars great add on
This was a great add on. It makes the playing seem even more real. I love the tennis racket my only complaint would be that it has some small damage to the racket but that could be due to my husband’s wild swinging and the occasional hitting of objects with it. This was a great purchase and cheaper than i saw it in the store.

4 Stars watch out house plants
These attachments add to the fun of your Wii. My only warning is be careful of house plants if you have any. I got really into the tennis game and whacked off a couple leafs from my ficus plant. They’ll grow back but I got a sick high score!

1 Star Wii Grand Scat Sports Pack
I dont know how well the other sport controllers work. But these didnt work so well for me. Controls feel and movement are just fine. The screen sensor will work very little or not at all. I really liked the golf club but to finish a course I had to use the screen sensor, point and click. I would need to remove my controller from the golf club at the end of each course because the sensor beam could not make it threw their cheap set up. Same with the bat. The tennis racket is very bad. Im surprised that they didnt receive more bad reviews.

Tanner Webb loves sports as much as the next 12-year-old boy, but his weak legs usually relegate his playing time to Nintendo Wii games.

1 Star Why bother?
I bought 2 sets of these attachments. I couldn’t get the golf clubs to work so I haven’t tried the others. Actually you can do the stuff with just the wiimote. I’m going to try some of the others again but I already think the sports pack is more trouble than it’s worth.

4 Stars Wii Grand Slam Sports Pack Review
The golf club and baseball bat helped me to play better when playing Tiger Woods Tour 07 and also several baseball games on my Wii.

5 Stars Not complete
I did not recieved the tennis racket in the packet. That was the thing I wanted the most.

1 Star Very Bad communication
This Wii Grand Slam Sports Pack was really bad.

That didn’t communicate with WII player.

Anymore, I didn’t use this one.

Useless!

3 Stars wii grand slam pack
In this pack the bat and tennis racket are fun to use. The racket lights up and the bat helps you hold your position better. The golf club is pretty flimsy and the wheel is really small. I am happy with this purchase because it was the right price for what it is and my kids love using all the attachments.

5 Stars Wii Games
I enjoy all the purchases from Amazon but was not happy with one item from someone else the sports pack is really cool we all like to use it and it gets the family together

1 Star A product whose very existence frustrates.
What can one say about a product that doesn’t actually DO anything? It certainly isn’t surprising to see companies like this taking advantage of the market when a family-centric console like the Wii comes along, but it is still frustrating.

Bottom line: this product doesn’t actually add any functionality to the Wiimote. It simply attempts to make it look like the peripheral more appropriate for the sport being played. If that thrills you, then go for it. If not, your money will be better spent simply investing in another Wiimote and nunchuck.

1 Star tried it once when they arrived
useless………. if you have kids maybe it would be worth buying….. my ultimate review would be “more trouble then what it’s worth” although I don’t have any driving games yet. Maybe the steering wheel is usable.

5 Stars Sports Pack Family Fun
The product was exactly as advertised and the family has enjoyed all of the accessories for the Wii.

5 Stars Fun for all
Adding these to the Wii made the games much more fun for us to play. We really get into the fun and are getting a nice workout in some spare time while having fun as well.
